convert XML file into Text file(fixed length)

If someone out there could help me out with this problem. I would really appreciate it.

I am trying to convert xml into text file(fixed length) using Unix Borne shell scripts.

My xml file:

<root>

<header_rec recordtype="00">
<record_id>00</record_id>
<country_code>AK></country_code>
</header_rec>

<detail_rec recordtype="01">
<record_id_01>01</drecord_id>
<country_code_01>AK</country_code>
</detail_rec>

<detail_rec rectyp_2="10">
<record_id>10</record_id>
<country_code>AK</country_code>
<fax>4567677</fax>
</detail_rec>

<trailer_rec recordtype="99">
<record_id>99</record_id>
</trailer_rec>

</root>





My File Test.txt


00AK112005-08-15 (record type=00)(fixed lengths -->recordid:1-2 -->countrycode:5-7


012005-65AK2005-08-15 (record type=01)
012005-65AK2005-08-15 (record type=01)
012005-65AK2005-08-15 (record type=02)
012005-65AK2005-08-15 (record type=02)

99AK11392005-08-+0000424 (record type=99))




I can't use whitespace as a delimiter.
